[maemo-developers] [maemo-developers] Asterisk 1.2.0 - successfully run on Nokia 770

[From: Razvan Dragomirescu]

Ok, that explains it :). I guess I need to brush up on my Linux
administration skills, I guess I've been doing programming for too long. I
have noticed though that the app is much more stable if I create a swap file
of 16MB on the MMC card, like this

dd if=/dev/zero of=/media/mmc1/extraswap bs=1024 count=16384
mkswap /media/mmc1/extraswap 16384
swapon /media/mmc1/extraswap

(all of the above obviously run as root)

For some reason, doing the same with a file located in the internal flash
memory won't work (swapon exits with "Invalid argument").

Was I correct in assuming that in a memory low situation, the system might
kill my Asterisk process? I haven't done much to optimize its memory
footprint, I've just taken out the modules that were preventing it from
starting. Everything else is still in there, I'm working on cleaning it up a
bit before I package it for the world.

Thanks again,
Razvan
